What is a vertical flow electrostatic precipitator?

Electrostatic precipitators can be designed for horizontal flow or vertical flow. The schematic below shows a vertical flow electrostatic precipitator. The feed gas enters near the bottom and rises to the top. As it enters, the stream passes electrodes creating an electric field that gives the particles a charge, usually negative.

What are the components of electrostatic precipitator?

Terms and conditions apply. The schematic sketch of main structure of electrostatic precipitator.

How does an electrostatic precipitator work?

Detail information on various components is given in the chapter on Electrostatic Precipitator Components. An ESP works because of electrostatic attraction (like charges repel; unlike charges attract). An ESP uses a high voltage electrostatic field to separate dust, fume or mist from a gas stream.

Why do precipitators use plate collection electrodes?

Most U.S. precipitators use plate collection electrodes because these units treat large gas volumes and are designed to achieve high collection efficiency. The plates are generally made of carbon steel.

How are precipitator plates rapped?

Precipitator plates are rapped periodically while maintaining the continuous flue gas cleaning process. In other words, the plates are rapped while the ESP is on-line; the gas flow continues through the precipitator and the applied voltage remains constant.

How to start an electrostatic precipitator?

Startup of an electrostatic precipitator is generally a routine operation. It involves heating a number of components such as support insulators and hoppers. If possible, the ESP should not be turned on until the process reaches steady state conditions. There are two startup procedures: classical and aggressive.
